Abstract: An intense bloom of Noctiluca scintillans (Macartney) was observed along the coast of Kalpakkam between 11 and 17 October 1988. The coastal waters appeared dense green. Estimations of Noctiluca population, chlorophyll a,b,c, and total carotenoid and physicochemical characteristics were carried out during the bloom period. Species composition of diatoms were assessed before, after, and during the peak bloom period. Diatoms were absent in phytoplankton samples during the peak period of the bloom.
